Our African adventures..

We were finally in Africa!!  We arrived in Cape Town where we had a few days to chill out and catch up on life before our 35-day overland tour, with Acacia Africa, to Zanzibar.

We spent the first few days checking out the magical city of Cape Town and walked to the top of Table Mount, which was stunning.  We also did a day trip to Cape of Good Hope (the most south-western point of Africa) and surrounding areas (Haute Bay, Chapman’s Peak etc).

My volunteer experience on the island paradise of Zanzibar..

I was off to Africa to volunteer for my first time, and I chose Zanzibar (an island of the coast of Tanzania) to offer my services (although it does cost to do this!).  What an island paradise!

I arrived a few days before I was scheduled to help and went to the Northern tip of the island to Kendwa.  This place was incredible.  I have never seen such white sand with pristine waters – it was like a dream.
